Over the past 8 years, Joel Mesler has painted over a thousand portraits. Part performance, a hap-happy-happening, Mesler has created unique opportunities for guests and passersby to sit for a mini-portrait session at venues such as Independent Art, Levy Gorvy Dayan, and The Mark Hotel, on a ferry, and even at artist Austyn Weiner’s wedding. You, too, could experience portrait painting with Mesler!
